Best Festivities Poems

Take the skin off my back turn me into a rug

Treat me as everybody else, something to walk over

Tell me i am important and original to get what you want

Tear the teeth from my skull, cauterize my gums together

Nothing I say every seem important anyway

Christmas
Has much joy and celebration,
Rolled into twenty-four hours of elation.
It echoes with laughter,
Sees caring, generosity and love scatter.
Too much food and drink,
May ruin it for some;
As it ends the heartburn, will come; 
Set in for the night; to dreams we’ll succumb.

For children,
Each one is filled...

It was my evening, that's
For sure - 
"Its your aura"
For sure - 
At last I'm good
At something.
"Spot the Equity card!"
"When are you going
To be a superstar?"
Said Sarah.
That seemed to be 
The question 
On everyone's lips. 
At last, at last, at last
I'm good at something.

And so...

Wasn't High Street so well decorated for the holidays. 
So many lights and other artefacts, with Christmas tree so rife. 
Everyone shop-windowing, hardly a friendly gaze.
Elated with so many presents was my wife. 
Yet how we have forgotten our life of strife....

The festivities 

The nauseous time of year 
When booze is handy
 Sentimentality 
Silly hats doesn`t touch me
Safe inside a fog of disbelief...

Ever around us, now they surround us.
This one evening of foul festival fuss.
dance with the ghosts
sing with our dead hosts
Toward the Styx we quickly schuss.

Ravens crawl and snakes fly,
goonies have only one good eye.
ghosts will haunt us
and goblins taunt us
Soon we’ll meet our fate by...

Thank God for that
Its all over for another year
Only 4 months to go till the Easter Sales
Ho Ho Ho
Jingle Bells 
Happy New Year 
Shame it's still Winter 
And when the Christmas Light's are taken down
The dark cold nights
Will bite 
I hope Father Christmas brought you...

A whiff of cedar, strong in the air
Joyful cries as days grow near
When single a day, makes men wonder days
Moving about without delays
With sales rising to fullest in spike
As domestics cry out and plants alike
Tunes cheery, food savoury and dance happily
Yet man starts to act...

Where I come from
It’s dark and quiet
Eleven months of the year
Then one fine day
Everything changes

All of a sudden
It’s bright and snowing
And I come to life
After a long hibernation

I love to see my old friend
Elf sitting on the shelf
Right next to a lit-up tree
He never says...

It all started in North Carolina
Home of my heart and physique
I don’t think it’s praised in China
Because of such blazing mystique

It began at Keystone Camp in Brevard
Where children were so delighted
To discover the wonders endeavored
By those creative minds, so excited

It was like a sort of...

Glistening, dazzling
Whispering gentle
Colorful ribbons
Pines, sentimental
Christmas miracles

Lovely spirit
Blessing our hearts
Silent night heard
Winds blowing hope

Christmas bells
Carols sung
Merry souls

Spices
Winter

Joy

“The I’ll Dance” was the father of a Mine’s good family friend.
In the main festivities of Navalmanzano, Segovia
And its pilgrimages
He did not dare to ask the girls to dance
Afraid that everyone would give him pumpkins.
-The mowers are coming
The housewives are coming
And the young women who...
